Add Sessions to Meet Manager
From MSQ eReference
In order to create a Meet Timeline, events need to be put into Sessions. This should be done after adding the events, but if an event is added later the sessions can be amended.
It is recommended that Masters meets use the intervals of 45/45. This means 45 seconds between the end of a heat and the start of the next heat, with an additional 45 seconds in the case of backstroke events. While Masters meets may run faster than this, experience has shown that this set of time intervals is a reasonable average estimate of the time meets will take to run.
Procedure
- In Meet Manager, select the Events menu, then the Sessions menu.
- Click the Add menu option
